About time I inflicted some racing shots on you.

Pete,
Nice shot !
Good souvenir for me this Austin
I had an Austin "mini"many years ago but not a "Copper S" too expensive for me !
When you drive this car its look like you drive a kart ! very funny

Any more? Be careful what you wish for. At the last count there were over 100k racing photos. One or two of these may have included Minis.

Fortunately for you, the vast majority were not Leica shots.

Pete,

Nice almost front wheel up shot! You can hear the engine and smell the rubber. BTW: in Holland (I think) they are called "Morris Mini Cooper".

Once did a day at a track myself with an Audi A4 2.5 TD Quattro, now that got my pulse running!

Lovely shot Pete.

I was only ten when she was racing!
